http://brew.sh/
basically tells you to type(or cut and paste this):

/usr/bin/ruby -e "$(curl -fsSL
https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/master/install)"

in your terminal, but yeah, you'll need to install Xcode.

once you get homebrew installed, you just type:

brew install emacs

in your terminal

That one should set up like your debian one did.

Worst case scenario you install debian in a VirtualBox, but you shouldn't
need to.
I personally paid for Parallels, its faster and has nicer integration, your
virtualized programs appear in your dock along with the rest of you osx
progs.  (I needed windoze for something or another)
